"I think if someone said they're envisioning this type of win, they'd be lying," Allen said.
"This was a phenomenal win but not a clean one, you know, our defense needs to improve. Our tackling needs to improve," Allen continued. "The little miscues where we fumble or a bad snap needs to improve, but that this is definitely not what I was envisioning, but I'll take it, you know."
